I think we throw around the word "terrible" too loosely. It's a respectable company. Can you tell us what engine it uses? :unsure:

While it may be a respectable company, it is terrible at detecting malware and always has been. It doesn't matter if the publisher is respectable or not when a product fails at detecting malware. For example, TotalAV, which is published by an untrustworthy company, is quite good at detecting malware, because it is using Avira signatures.

CMC use their own engine and have never licensed any other engines.

Man, I gotta be honest here, you sound like a shill for the company. You "invite us to test it" and then argue against any opinion against the product.

It's a no-name company with a website filled with poor grammar and engrish. That doesn't exactly fill any prospective customer with confidence. Add to the fact that Roger_M, who I don't always agree with but I DO respect his experiences, says it's a trash heap. I'm inclined to trust his word on this one.
I invite you to test it and share your thoughts

It's a respectable company

It is not useless. It is a pretty good security suite. I wish you guys wouldn't criticize it so much

I just tested it and it confirms that it is ineffective ....

I wish I was. CMC Corp is a pretty large Vietnamese company. I imagine they pay well. But sadly, I am not. I just discovered the software recently.

The test is available and the result is bad.
As I noted, its base is too weak and it has no defensive shields, which is insufficient in 2022.

If you're referring to the latest video on your YouTube channel, I understood almost nothing from it. It's just random windows with links and music. No explanations with text on screen or in the description, no voiceover telling us what you're doing... :confused:

The description is very complete, I think you had not read it.
I always put the passages (Malware Test, Fake crack etc) when I go to the test.

On the other hand yes I don't speak because I have a bad level in English and I use the software DeepL to answer (I speak French, and English I have a lot of trouble)

What other software would you recommend pairing this with in order to improve the security of a PC?

It is not with CMC that you will improve your security :/

If you are on Windows 10 or 11, leave Windows Defender which is very efficient.
If you want a paid antivirus, my choice is F-Secure
